I'm on a fresh (clean) install of Leopard with a clean install of XP/BootCamp with Parallels latest build. Everything has been working fine up until yesterday when I got an "unable to open image Boot Camp" error. That happened a few times but after a restart I was fine.

This morning, when I attempt to open XP in Parallels, I'm getting missing or corrupt system files error message. It seems to be missing all the system files. When I boot directly into Boot Camp with the option key, now it's showing both Windows XP Pro and Parallels Configuration for my XP installations. Usually it doesn't let me choose Parallels when I'm booting directly in.

I'm able to get into Windows XP fine in Boot Camp, but Parallels is just not working. Will just adding a new VM configuration solve this issue? Thanks in advance.
